Today!

Well not much is new here at the Spiers' residence... Ben is working a lot, Alivia is growing and learning a lot (separate post on her soon), and I am loving life a lot. God is so good and we are so blessed by all of His provisions. He provides for us what we really need in life. Sometimes Ben and I have to step back because we can get carried away with what we want in life, then we realize that God has given and is continuing to give us the things in life that we really need, not want. LOVE, friends, family!!! Food, shelter, clothes... There are times when I want something that we don't need, and I can't seem to get my mind off it- that is when I have to step away from what I want and look at the big picture. I try to think about all the blessings God has sent our way. I know that we can't have everything, but we have a lot, a lot to be thankful for! :) We are very thankful to believe in such a loving, wonderful God who wants to take care of our family and love us in such an incredible way. He loves us so much that He would make the ultimate sacrifice of sending His son to die on the cross for us! God is amazing, and today I am content with what I have because I know that God is bigger than my belongings and possessions.
